haircut time

Once the weather starts getting warmer, we convince Juma it's time to cut off his long, Luke Skywalker locks of hair. He prefers it long and shaggy ever since the first winter we let him keep it long, when he was three. The 70's shag is in style anyway, right?





Juma had set the date for his haircut as March 21, the first day of spring. But since he has been constantly brushing hair out of his eyes, we convinced him to cut it yesterday. (I admit: it took a little bribe to let Justin cut it. We let him watch Star Wars: The Phantom Menace on a mini-DVD player in the bathroom while Justin cut.)





Juma said of the new cut, "I don't like it. It makes my head look skinny."

I think it looks cute either way I also loved the pictures of the blossoms.
